WOO HOOO! Congratulations! What an independence day you will have!

Yep did you notice my countdown ticker!!! I am soooooo excited. A little nervous because of the length and extent of the surgery. But I figure it will only feel like 2 minutes to me, and the pain will go away quickly. Even 2 months of extreme pain would be better than I lifetime of this jelly roll I am carrying around!

I didn't figure the pain would be that bad, but I am willing to put up with 2 months:wink2: Plus being a teacher I don't have to worry about work at all, so no stress in trying to figure out how to get back to work. It will be hot and we do live in the desert, but that is what air conditioning is for!:rolleyes2:

I feel the same way salsa! I am getting a breast reduction too. I feel very nervous, and excited at the same time!

Good luck to you!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
